Adam spotted this unusual Topeka Highway Mower. I’m now sure if there are any Willys parts on this model.

“I had this running a few years ago. Ran good for its age.
6 cylinder Ford engine in it. large steel blade on the front. A real great piece. For any buddies collection. You are not gonna come across another one of these very often if at all. good project .”

I’m guess it’s been a while since this mowed anything. You can learn more from this manual.

I’m not sure how much original Roof Palomino is left on this rig; here’s a Model 60 manual.

“Rare roof 60 mower from the 60s made in pontiac il. This one had been made to resemble a palomino. 18 hp cast iron Kohler hydrostatic drive. Runs and drives good alot of fun. Has new a ATV tires and 3000 lb winch. High and low range. Turns alot of heads. Cruise around the car show in style. Deck not included but could be made a mower again there are still mower decks out there for these. 1900 cash obo cash in person. located in benton il 62812. Wont deliver ”

UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5000.

Unclear if this has mowing equipment or not.

“RARE RARE RARE Roof manufacturing co. Palomino only around 100 were every made. this is painted like the M A S H jeep, 8.5 out of 10 condition. runs great looks great paraded last three years always a big hit. { check the internet for its rarity } has a matching trailer that goes with it”

Seller notes this is built on some jeep drive train. It makes me wonder if it was a Topeka Mower chassis?

“I have a homemade loader, has 3cylinder Diesel engine. Rear steer, not sure of make of engine. Needs to have brakes hooked up. Runs and moves fine. I believe that the drive train under it is from a Willy’s Jeep. Has high and low range. I don’t know what the lifting capacity is or the total weight of the machine. I had it on my 6×12 foot single axle trailer without any problems.”

Justin’s selling this Roof Palomino. This version, the model “60”, did not come with the jeep-like hood, so it isn’t quite as jeep-looking as other’s we’ve seen. He hasn’t used it recently, but it did fire right up when he started it recently. To make an offer, email him at Fehlhaferj@gmail.com

“This came from the university of Nebraska and I bought it from the guy that bought it from there auction 19 years ago. Mowed with it for 16 of those years. Just parked it because I decided to go the safety route and bought a newer John Deere so my daughter could take over the mowing. I live on a farm and it it awesome at mowing the road side ditch because of its wide wheel base. I even entered a lawn mower race back in the day and won fastest lawn mower. Had my wife drive next to me on the road with car and was going 23 mph.”

UPDATE **SOLD** Was $900.

Tim’s got this Topeka for sale.

“This is an older highway mower it’s four-wheel-drive with what I believe is Willys undercarriage it has a flat head four-cylinder continental motor need some work”
